There's something special about those first few steps when you get out of the car after a 2+hr run. First hot run of the season. 80 degrees. Zone 2 log run.

50 degrees and sunny. I'll take it!

#garmin #running #runsky My version of the Barkley. Just a little bit easier.

@barackobama.bsky.social: "When I was POTUS, I suppose I could have simply unilaterally ordered the military to go into some red state and harass and intimidate a governor or cut off funding for states that didn't vote for me... but that is contrary to how I think our democracy is supposed to work."

Things you will do to keep a run streak alive when it's rainy, snowy, icy and cold outside - run laps inside your home.

I've decided to end my daily run streak and start again next year. #running #fitness

Zone 2 running - improves stroke volume, fat burning efficiency, and endurance. The ego takes a hit at the beginning because walking may be required. Stick with it and get faster. If you can run and talk it's zone 2. #running #fitness

Zone 2 running for the win!

Tapering for #rundisney #dopeychallenge in 2 weeks with easy z2 run. Always get nervous this close to event waiting for body to say "not so fast my friend. " #running #fitness

Most of my long run struggles happen in the last 3-5 miles where my heart rate increases even though my pace slows. Usually its a hydration issue.

Have you ever dreaded going on a long run knowing you weren't properly fueled or hydrated? That was me today. It wound up being one of my best ever. Had plenty of energy to run my fastest split last. 20 miler. Last one before taper. #longrun #running #fitness #rundisney #dopeychallenge #20miler

Does anyone else get excited after completing your long run on Saturday, knowing you get to sleep in Sunday morning? #running #fitness #longrun #zone2running

I've used HRR for a few years. For zone 2/zone 4 80/20 training, most people can't run or stay in Z2 at 110-129 without walking. Even using HRR at 129-143 requires walking for beginners. HRR is more accurate because it factors your resting HR, which is a good indicator of fitness level.

Springtime temps and humidity are rising. Sometimes, runners need to put the ego aside and do what's best for the body. Slow down and keep the heart rate low until you've properly acclimated to the seasonal changes. #running #fitness #training

Take your health and fitness seriously, like your life depends on it. #running #health #fitness #lifestyle #change

Run quiet.

6.21 miles today and Strava didn't give me credit for my 10k challenge. 🤬 #running #fitness #challenges

Bad weather required indoor running today. Tried the Orangetheory Everest workout.

. Start on 2% incline
. Increase 1% every minute until reaching 15%
. At 15% decrease by 1% until reaching 2% start
. All out on 1% for 1 minute to finish
Farthest distance wins.

Yes. Course goes down the strip.

Rock n Roll Las Vegas marathon.

A little muggy after the rains and tornado warnings this morning...in February! #running #fitness

Thank God we can still listen to music. #grammys #music

The body adapts to the highest level of stress consistently applied to it. Improve yourself by stepping out of your comfort zone. #running #fitness #life #goals

Congratulations on your accomplishments. You are definitely not "perfectly ordinary." You and your sister are inspirational to us first-time Dopeys and to those who would never attempt it. Hold your head high!

So, I bought a bottle of Clase Azul Reposado while on a cruise in 2013. Haven't opened it until today...probably a mistake. The vanilla, oak, and sweetness remind me of whisky instead of tequila. Tasty. #tequila #whisky #bourbon
